Fat de na yu men blɔd vesel? Lɛ wi lan bɔt Atherosclerosis of the Aorta!

Yu dɔn yɛri bɔt di blɔd vesel we big pas ɔl ɛn we impɔtant pas ɔl na wi bɔdi? Na di aorta . I tan lɛk di men paip sistem we de sheb wata frɔm wi wata tank to di wan ol os. Na di wan we de kɛr klin blɔd frɔm di at to di wan ol bɔdi. So, ivin dis kayn impɔtant ship kin gɛt prɔblɛm sɔntɛnde. tide wi go tכk bכt wan pan dεn kayn kכndyushכn dεm ya, we na di dεposit fεt na di aorta כ `(Atherosclerosis of Aorta)`.

Wetin na `(Atherosclerosis of Aorta)`?

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, wetin kin apin na dat di fat ɛn kɔlɔstrel kin gɛda insay di big blɔd vesel na wi bɔdi, we na di aorta , lɛk rɔst we de mek wan layt insay wan ol wata paip. Wi kin kɔl dis tin we kin stika ‘plek’ . Dis nɔ kin apin wan nɛt. Infakt, wi kin bigin fɔ bil dis ‘plek’ smɔl smɔl frɔm we wi yɔŋ, bɔt i kin jɔs bil as wi de ol ɛn bigin fɔ mek prɔblɛm.

Imajin, dis aorta na vein we lכng pas wan fut, we de kכmכt frכm di at tru di bεlε to di bכdi. dis ‘plek’ kin fכm enisay na di aorta. כltu, bכku tεm dis kכndyushכn kin afekt di pat pan di aorta we de rכn tru di bεlε, dat na di `Abdominal Aorta`.

Wan ɔda tin na dat if pɔsin gɛt plek lɛk dis na in aɔta, chans de fɔ mek i gɛt plek bak na ɔda blɔd vesel dɛn na in bɔdi, fɔ ɛgzampul , na di korona at we de gi blɔd to di at, ɔ na di karotid at we de gi blɔd to di bren. Bikɔs, dis (Atherosclerosis) na wan sik we de ambɔg di wan ol bɔdi . Dat min se if prɔblɛm de na wan ples, prɔblɛm kin de na ɔda ples dɛn bak.

Aw dis tin kin afɛkt wi bɔdi?

we di plek de bכku na di aorta, i de blכk di men bכdi we de go na di bכdi. Yu no se bɔku smɔl smɔl blɔd vesel dɛn de branch frɔm dis aorta ɛn kɛr blɔd we gɛt ɔksijɛn go na ɔl di pat dɛn na di bɔdi? So, we plek blok di bכdi fכ fכlכ na di aorta, i kin mek di bכdi we gεt כksijεn n כ de na difrεn כgan dεm εn tisu dεm na di bכdi (ischemia).

Yu kin tink se dis ‘plek’ go gro ɛn gro te i blok di blɔd vesel kpatakpata. Na tru se dis kin apin na sɔm smɔl smɔl blɔd vesel dɛn. Bɔt bikɔs di aɔta na wan vessel we rili wayd, ivin wit plek we de nia in wɔl dɛn, ples stil de fɔ mek sɔm blɔd flɔ.

Bɔt di men ɛn denja prɔblɛm we de ya na dat wan pat pan dis ‘plek’ kin brok ɛn stɔp ɔdasay. Na dat wi kin kɔl ‘embolis’ na mɛrɛsin.

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, we di plek dɛn kin gɛda tan lɛk we dɔti kin gɛda na paip ɔnda sink. Bɔt ɛmbolis na we pɔsin kin blok wantɛm wantɛm. I tan lɛk se if yu de brus yu tit ɛn aksidɛntli drɔp tut paste tiub na di sink, i go stɔp na di paip ɛn stɔp di wata we de flɔ.

Plɛk na di aorta kin mek tu kayn ɛmboli:

• Tromboembolism: Dis kin apin we blɔd klɔt fɔm na di say we di plek de. Dɔn dis klot kin brok ɛn travul wit di blɔd.
• Atheroembolism: Dis kin apin we di plek brok ɛn wan pat pan am brok ɛn travul wit di blɔd. Dis nɔ kin bɔku lɛk di blɔd we wi bin dɔn tɔk bɔt.

Bɔt pan ɔl tu di kes dɛm, sɔntin we nɔ fɔ de na di blɔd vesel dɛn de muv. dat na di men komplikashכn fכ fεt dεposit dεm na di aorta. di ifekt pan di bכdi dipכnt pan usay dis ‘εmbolis’ de stכk. biכs bכdi nכ de fכlכ pas da stכk pכynt de, di כgan dεm εn tisu dεm na da εria de nכ de gεt inof כksijεn εn bigin fכ damej kwik (ischemia).

Aw siriɔs dis tin de apin?

If ɛmbolis, we kin kɔmɔt frɔm fat we de na di aorta, brok ɛn lod ɔdasay na di bɔdi, i kin bi mɛdikal imejensi we kin mek pɔsin in layf de pan denja , bikɔs i kin mek di blɔd nɔ go na da say de kpatakpata.

Dis sik kin put yu pan big risk fɔ gɛt imejensi lɛk dis:

• Akyu ischemic colitis: Dis na wan sik we di blɔd flɔ to di kɔlon nɔ kin blo, we kin mek yu gɛt sɔm sayn dɛm lɛk bɛlɛ pen ɛn blɔd stɔl.
• Acute limb ischemia : Dis kin apin mɔ na di leg dɛn. Wantɛm wantɛm, di leg kin swɛt, i kin shayn, ɛn i kin fil pen.
• Myocardial infarction: I de blok wan at we de kɛr blɔd go na di at.
• Renal infarction : Dis kin mek yu kidni nɔ wok fayn.
• Splɛnik infarkshɔn .
• Stroke ɔ Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA): Na we blɔd vesel we de gi blɔd to di bren we de blok.

pan tap dat, di plek we de bכku na di aorta de mek di wכl na di at wik, we de mek di risk fכ divεlכp di aorta anεrizm . If dis kayn anɛrizm bɔs ɔ brok wantɛm wantɛm, i kin kil pɔsin, so i impɔtant fɔ go to dɔktɔ wantɛm wantɛm.

Udat dis de apin to?

Dis kכndyushכn we dεn kכl ``Atherosclerosis of the Aorta`` kin rili apin to εnibodi . Na wan sik we pipul dɛn kin gɛt. Di risk fɔ gɛt dis kin bɔku as yu de ol.
